I am very fair white, redhead, 100% Northern European (23&me) but have thalassemia. I’m from Los Angeles but my ancestors can be traced to Mediterranean areas too. If you have thalassemia I suggest you take a DNA test. It’s very interesting to see where your genes come from.

[@tholaalw8647]

Maldives (south Asian country) has the highest number of thalassemia carriers. About 18% or little bit more. That means 1 out of every 4 men is a carrier,

If there is a problem in alpha or beta chains, hemotetramers will be formed. They are water insoluble & will precipitate in the RBCs, causing ineffective erythropoiesis. Since a hemoglobinopathy dec.globin --> decreased Hb hence anemia.

[@ashleyblaxton9619]

Now I'm not a genius in any way 😂 but my doctor explained it to me like thalassemia and sickle cell anemia are pretty much the same thing. Sickle cell is the name when black people have it and thalassemia is when white people have it. I'm not sure how true it is though. I have it too

[@MedicosisPerfectionalis]

That’s simply NOT TRUE! Sickle cell anemia and thalassemia are different diseases...Yes, they both cause hemolysis, but that doesn’t mean they are the same. Look up their genetics and you will see the difference! Thanks!
